Zeender's equally quaffable Kellerbier, named Being There after the Peter Sellers film shot in D.C., is a creamy, unfiltered Pilsner with a clean, dry finish. The Duke (as in Duke Ellington, whose history crossed paths with Right Proper's building) is a medium-bodied Belgian-style strong golden ale with fruit flavors and a spicy, dry finish. Zeender's "aromatic pale ale" Raised by Wolves, brewed with three hops from the Pacific northwest—Cascade, Columbus, and El Dorado—is juicy and satisfyingly bitter.

The best news of all? Each 12- to 16-ounce pour of house beer is only $4 or $5, lower than most District drinkers are used to paying for draft brews, including locally produced ones.

In addition to the four beers brewed on site, Right Proper is pouring two collaborations: a Wee Heavy with buckwheat honey called Lost and Proper brewed with Lost Rhino, and Bête Noire, a silky Baltic Porter with loads of oats brewed with DC Brau. The drink menu also includes guest beers, one on draft and several in cans and bottles.

Right Proper is also serving a bananas foster pudding and pineapple upside-down cake. Hours are 5 to 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 5 to 12 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 5 to 10 p.m. on Sunday, with lunch service starting later.
